Output: a piece of dope material evidence for academic and online validation
Polách, Jakub ; Zálešák, Jan (referee) ; Kubíková, Zuzana (advisor)
According to Konrad Paul Liessmann, knowledge society is a structure subject to certain political and economic interests. University education, being a part of this structure, is reduced to mere professional training and the potential of knowledge acquired in this manner can be measured only in terms of its usefulness in the labour market. Under these circumstances, industrial society is being transformed into a society focused not on extraction of raw materials but on extraction of knowledge. Liessmann speaks about a process of knowledge industrialization: an industrial worker, subjected to an economic model driven by material production, is replaced by a knowledge worker, subjected to an economic model operating with symbolic value. Education is subjected to management control asserting economic evaluation – knowledge undergoes industrial processing, so that values, opinions and beliefs ultimately have no relevance within the context. What is of utmost importance is the quantifiable output, sick evidence of academic/online validation. In connection to this critique, my BA thesis discusses the possible content of the depleted BcA academic degree. Any sort of commodification occurring in the process is purely coincidental.

The masters' project is focused on the issue of working conditions in the field of graphic design and its critique. I was searching for ways how to work (economically) sustainable and how not to be dependent only on work for clients. I was developing my own projects to diversify the way I work.

The goal of the Bachelor’s Thesis is to describe the author’s path of designing juggling balls and setting up a juggling balls brand, and to explain the decisions, which he as a designer, entrepreneur and juggler in one person makes. The main issue is not only product design as such but also production and marketing as a non-negligible part of design.

Service Development
Suchý, Jan ; Maňas, Kristian (referee) ; Kubíková, Zuzana (advisor)
The bachelor thesis describes the development of digital products / services within a long-term collaborative project, reflecting current processes and tools used in creating visual outputs (graphic and text editors, cloud services for file sharing, platforms for organising collaboration). Existing software usually slowly reflects technological developments, causes unnecessary errors in communication between creators and generates unnecessary tasks. Most work takes place offline, products and services are not compatible. Emerging web applications / service co.llaborate.online have ambitions to solve these problems and automate part of workflows

Caravan Club
Fišerová, Barbora ; Kubíková, Zuzana (referee) ; Kijonka, Lukáš (advisor)
The bachelor thesis describes the evolution and changes of the phenomenon of organized caravaning in our country from its beginning and its boom to the present. Due to the breadth of the selected theme in the monitored period, from the 1970s to 2019, I focus mainly on Western Bohemia, specifically the Caravan Club Pilsen, of which my family is a member. Part of the book is the autobiographically written memory of Jan Valenta, who wrote the club “Chronicle” from around 1980 to 2011, archival photographs and authorial texts and narrative interviews. The caravanist's biographies allow us to look at both the specifics of this phenomenon and the form of tourism, as well as the functioning of Czech society in the period of so-called normalization and years after. The research as an “insider-caravanist” and the editing of available material resulted in a printed book that maps the historical development and transformations of CC Pilsen from a personal perspective.
